    I can give my perspective on someone who just started playing 3 weeks ago. The 2 other FPS games I’ve played significantly are Battlefield 5 and DMZ, so nothing really comparable to Apex. I played the Mix Tape for the week to just try and get the basics of gunplay down, then jumped into pubs after that. It was pretty punishing at first and still is when you run into cracked players. However I can say when you make a play in Apex or squad wipe a team and pick your teammates up it’s probably the most rewarding feeling you can get in any FPS. That’s what kept me coming back. You’re going to die when you drop and you just kind of have to push through that until it starts to click, shield and health managment mixed with the gunplay and knowing when to push a team to capitalize on damage or when it’s safe to rez a teammate all comes with more time played. Like he said in the video it’s very rewarding when you make plays and that’s the satisfying part of the game. Knowing how the armour evolution works is very important, I would watch some videos before dropping in on that topic. In 2-3 weeks of playing pubs I think I have 16 wins or so, no idea if that average or what but that’s my experience so far.

      When you come in as a complete fresh account I think your first 10 games or more are with bot lobbies , You will have a few players thrown in there also around your level.
      This was so new players would would stick to the game and wouldn’t get discouraged because of the sweaty players.
      Now I’m not trying to knock your skills or anything,just to make you well aware of your surroundings,because there will be a point you will hit lobbies and reality might bite.
      I was looking at this video as I was thinking of returning (stopped playing since season 13 I think maybe 12)
      Master and diamond player,but I got sick of the grind and I noticed the cheating was becoming a problem back then,especially with Chronus Zens and the controller argument!
      I play for fun,but I also play to win in ranked..and when you play against cheating sods you get neither out of the game.
      So my advice to anyone is,are you having fun with it??
      If the answers yes,well there you go play the game.
      It’s when it stops being fun you need to walk away!
      The Raged people I came across in Apex,makes me ask ..I wonder what they do for fun??

    I have about 3000 hours in Apex, reaching Master level, with 4K 20 kills on MnK. A few days ago, I created a new account, starting on a controller. I've never owned a console before and never played any FPS with a controller. I consider myself a complete beginner with this new account: I have 0 aim, 0 experience with the device, and 0 movement.
    After 4 days, my KD is below 1, I've won 1 game, and somehow I'm dying to players level 500+ with Master, 4K, and 20 kills badges.
    As a complete beginner without the game knowledge I have thanks to my experience with MnK, it would be a complete nightmare. So no, don't start Apex in 2024.

    EA has failed in all aspects in removing the cheaters. The majority played from Orgin since their mods don't get detected. It's all RNG and as a older player than OP i can guarantee that even if you took years off the game, your games are screwed since you are pin up against where you left at. S4 was the best season and played occasionally back then. I work too much to even try to get good, so im the raging old man in the games. Solo games like Wow or final Fantasy are indeed more fun if you're not happy playing apex hacking legends. I will say its the same spot as League of Legends.

    From my experience, I started playing on pc with 10 days left of season 19, the matchmaking is so awful for beginners! We’re talking preds and masters in every lobby unless you’re playing at 7pm on a Saturday! When the destroyer2009 thing happened, I swapped to console because I couldn’t risk work stuff on my pc being compromised. Console lobbies are lots better matchmaking. The only issue is I’m on the base Xbox one, so I die occasionally because my game runs like a slideshow sometimes! 😅 All in all, if there is as better matchmaking, I’d tell all my friends to play, but as of right now, I’d only really recommend it to my most hardcore gamer friends!

    I feel like apex is going to be harder for newer players because they don’t really have a mode where you can practice on besides mixtape, when I first started playing I just played a lot of arenas and it kind of got me used to the gunfights and legend abilities. Another reason why I think it’s harder for newer players is because the game has bad matchmaking lobbies. I can die off spawn for 6 games straight and still get preds in my lobbies.

      I solo q, and 90% of the time, I get really bad teammates. If they're noobs I could understand, but a lot of times they're just dumb. Then I die to a full squad of good players who coordinate their push, even when it's just myself because my teammates died. This kind of shit happens all the time.

      @@wazat4094 Likely, because it´s hard to adjust with that many high-skilled players even in bronze ranking. Until you have finally adjusted, you will have to get a very high tolerance and lots and lots of dying. Is this a skill issue? Sure. Of course. Problem is, that many players won´t sustain their motivation if they mostly just die up their to silver/gold. I´d suppose, it will get a lot easier when silver/gold is reached.
      Not sure, how unranked is in this regard. But it really poses a problem for everyone, that comes from work and just want some chilled rounds and cannot spend enough time to get good enough for even bronze again.
      Bronze nowadays feels (to me, but i might memorize wrong) harder then Diamond/Master three to four years ago.
      Can definitely be worthwhile to still push through. But you need to accept the first hours to be a pretty big pain until you reached a bit higher rank with weaker players.

Than hopped into a few matches for a few hours knowing I would be rusty and I only got 5 kills within like 50 games before I threw in the towel and deleted it again for longer this time, might not even pick it back up.

    DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS GAME. It has tons of exploits and cheats since day 1, countless ppl are cheating since day 1 and have never gotten banned. If you are new after a while you will be matched with 3 stack masters or preds in normal games. If you go ranked no matter your rank you will again be in the same lobby with all the higher ranks. I have 4k hours on this game and it has never gotten better, only streamers defend it from time to time just so it wont die and they keep making money from their viewers. pls pin the comment, thx.
